Chapter 885: Backfire

“Jiang Wanlin! ”

Mu Feng reacted and gritted his teeth as he recited Jiang Wanlin’s name.

The anger in his heart was surging. Everything Jiang Wanlin said was like thunder exploding in his ears, making him unable to accept it. At the same time, he was shocked and flustered.

It had only been a few days. How could Jiang Wanlin have changed so much?

Wang Mingyue and Fang Lan must have said something to her.

Jiang Wanlin actually wanted to break off the engagement and even had the will to fight to suppress him in terms of ability. How could this be? How could this be?

Mu Feng almost gritted his teeth to calm down. He punched the stone beside him, causing him to gasp in pain.

His eyes were cold as he gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

Mu Feng turned around and returned to his room. Outside, he could clearly hear his fellow disciples talking, but when he opened the door, everyone was sleeping soundly in their beds.

Such abnormal alienation made Mu Feng feel disgusted. He endured it.

Lying on the bed, Mu Feng was still thinking about how to coax Jiang Wanlin. He had persevered for so many years. He could not let all his efforts go to waste.

Jiang Wanlin had to be his wife. He had to marry her unless Jiang Wanlin’s father was broke.

His family was in the business world. His father had taught him all kinds of sinister schemes since he was young. How to win over people’s hearts, how to suppress them, and how to control them. Jiang Wanlin was chosen by his father. The Jiang family’s power was a very good help to him.

As a rich young lady, Jiang Wanlin could be proud and ostentatious, but as his wife, she could not. A proud and confident woman was not easy to control.

Therefore, he had started to scheme against Jiang Wanlin since he was young.

He was also very successful. Jiang Wanlin was already in his hands. Even with Chen Lian around, he was not worried that Jiang Wanlin would escape his control.

However, after being chosen by Teacher Su, Jiang Wanlin changed drastically in just a few days. Mu Feng felt an unprecedented sense of danger.

He couldn’t sleep the entire night. When he woke up early for class, his gaze followed Jiang Wanlin. Seeing that Jiang Wanlin didn’t even look at him, Mu Feng felt a little anxious.

It was time for him to coax her. He couldn’t let Jiang Wanlin escape his control for too long. Otherwise, she would become more and more difficult to control. She was still young. If he really let her learn something, it would be even harder to control her after she became more capable.

However, in the next few days, Mu Feng did not have the chance to talk to Jiang Wanlin. Fortunately, his punishment was over today. He thought that after class today, he must find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Wanlin properly.

He was so lost in thought that he could not keep up with what Su Xiaolu had taught.

Of course, Su Xiaolu saw Mu Feng in a daze. Su Xiaolu immediately reprimanded him.

“Mu Feng, do you have anything against me? You’re so distracted.”

Su Xiaolu’s words were stern. For a moment, all the disciples looked at Mu Feng with all kinds of eyes.

“Teacher Su, don’t be angry. I’m not. I’m just not feeling well.”

In front of so many disciples, Mu Feng felt his face burning, but he could only quickly explain. This feeling made him feel extremely uncomfortable, but he had to explain.

However, Su Xiaolu did not let Mu Feng off so easily. She continued coldly, “Are you feeling unwell? What are you implying? Are you trying to say that my punishment for you is too harsh? Did I make you suffer by asking you to clean the pigpen?”

Mu Feng felt that he was about to break out in cold sweat from Su Xiaolu’s accusation. He quickly shook his head and denied, “No, no. Teacher, you’ve misunderstood. I just caught a cold recently.”

Su Xiaolu stared at him coldly. Mu Feng felt extremely oppressed. He found an excuse, but he seemed to have forgotten something.

Su Xiaolu was a divine doctor.

“Caught a cold? In that case, I’ll teach you a lesson. Disciples who know how to take pulses can also take this opportunity to take a look at his pulse. There’s a ready-made example.”

As soon as Su Xiaolu said that, Mu Feng looked even more flustered and vexed.

He seemed to want to explain, but Su Xiaolu did not give him this chance. She had already turned around and said calmly to all the disciples, “Although everyone usually cultivates and can absorb spiritual energy to cultivate and their bodies are much better than ordinary people, at the end of the day, everyone still has a mortal body. They eat the five grains and suffer from various illnesses. Everyone will fall sick. If they’re sick, they can’t force themselves. Our academy has many teachers who teach medical techniques and a pharmacy. If they’re sick, they must take medicine early. Don’t delay and damage their bodies. Our academy cherishes every disciple who comes to learn. We treat them equally.”

After saying that, Su Xiaolu’s expression softened a little. She turned around again and ignored Mu Feng’s flustered gaze as she walked over.

“Give me your hand.”

Su Xiaolu said calmly.

Mu Feng felt extremely guilty, but at this moment, he had no choice but to reach out.

He was really afraid that Su Xiaolu would expose him in public.

He was already feeling extremely embarrassed. He looked at Su Xiaolu with a complicated expression and was already showing weakness.

He only hoped that Su Xiaolu could help him cover it.

Didn’t Su Xiaolu value his potential? She should think about him and only ask him about it after the disciples dispersed.

Su Xiaolu pinched Mu Feng’s pulse. She looked at all the disciples and said calmly, “His pulse is strong, stable, and cold. The fire in his heart is rising rapidly, causing his liver to flare up. The corners of his eyes are red. It’s because he didn’t sleep enough and is depressed because he thinks too much. I advise you to think less. Otherwise, you won’t be able to withstand the anger and your heart won’t feel good. It’s very easy for your blood and Qi to flow backward and your heart to break. You’ll die of anxiety.”

Mu Feng felt unhappy when he heard that. He was angry, but he couldn’t show it. He could only lower his head, afraid that he wouldn’t control himself well and others would see.

However, he did not know how terrifying the divine doctor’s strength was.

Su Xiaolu frowned and asked coldly, “Your pulse is racing and your blood is flowing backwards, but you’re holding it in. What are you dissatisfied about? What did I say wrong? If you feel indignant, you can ask me. I only said that your blood is prone to flowing backwards and causing your heart to be damaged. Can’t you hear this? Are you afraid to say it because I’m the teacher?”

“I didn’t.”

How could Mu Feng be willing to admit it? He was flustered and felt that everything he said was wrong, but he could not leave. The gazes of others made him feel extremely embarrassed. He even hated Su Xiaolu for choosing him now.

“Then why did you lie and say that you caught a cold? Then why couldn’t you answer my question directly and even lie?”

Su Xiaolu’s question made it difficult for Mu Feng to answer. Could he tell the truth? He couldn’t and didn’t dare. If he did, would the academy still keep him? Mu Feng could only remain silent. He wanted to escape today in this way.

The other students were also silent.

Su Xiaolu let go of Mu Feng’s hand.. Did Mu Feng think that she couldn’t criticize him like this?
